Christmas Carols in Native American

http://www.janamashonee.com/

Man do I LOVE blogs! You get some of the neatest information! So I'm reading "Collecting My Thoughts" by Norma and she has a link to Jana Mashonee, a Lumbee Indian. She's recorded an album "An American Indian Christmas" with 10 traditional Christmas Carols, all sung in a different Native American tongue.

So... here's an example: Little Drummer Boy.


You can bet that I bought this album. It's absolutely beautiful! And as fantastic as her voice is, the Native American flutes playing some of the music is also wonderful. Very peaceful.

Merry Christmas!
